Azealia says THIS to fans after being dropped from a UK festival
The fall-out from Azealia Banks' outrageous Twitter outburst last night has stirred debate in both the US and UK, and it looks like the repercussions for the performer may be greater than she realised.
Following her racist abuse of former One Direction member, Zayn Malik, the 212 singer has come in for major criticism from fans and those in the music and entertainment industry.
So, it may come as no surprise to learn that organisers for the Rinse: Born & Bred Festival in London have decided to drop the controversial New Yorker from this year's line-up.
In addition to the abuse she levelled at Zayn online, the 24-year-old singer also dubbed UK rap music 'a disgrace' and threatened to bring 'arms' to her upcoming performance.
To all of my Darling UK fans who bought tickets to see me at the Rinse FM show. My sincerest apologies!!!!!

Azealia once again took to Twitter after learning that she's been cut from the upcoming festival to apologise to fans who may be disappointed by the organisers' decision.
"To all of my Darling UK fans who bought tickets to see me at the Rinse FM show. My sincerest apologies!!" she tweeted earlier today.
Refusing to draw a line under the situation, the Yung Rapunxel singer decided to once again make her opinion known, continuing: "But you know Mama Puma always goes in for the Kill. And NEVER backs down. Most of the people coming to this on my day were only coming for me."
But you know Mama Puma always goes in for the Kill. And NEVER backs down.

Defending herself against fans who reminded her that the UK helped put her on the map, the singer tweeted: "Fully acknowledge this. I absolutely adore the UK I just think US rap is better. Why are you so pressed?"
Hmmm, we wonder, Azealia…
